The Honeymoon





We found our digital camera! It was stuck in the fishing bag from last August. Beans.
Here are the long awaited photos from Hawaii! We had a great time.

Hawaii was beautiful. We ran into a lot of people who said "Oh! Are you on your honeymoon? Let us take your picture!" We also had the option of buying matching Hawaiin print outfits, but Danny and I opted out on that one.
My aunt and uncle have a beautiful time-share just outside of Lahaina, Maui. We traveled mainly on the northwestern and southwestern sides of the island. We went downtown to Lahaina quite a bit and went to the Old Lahaina Lu'au where they roasted a whole pig in the ground! The hula dancers were really amazing. Their costumes were beautiful and the dancing was so energetic.


A few days into the trip i found that Danny is a certified scuba diver...so we went diving! We found a dive shop that would let me come even though I'd never done it before. It was an experience. I panicked twice, but after I saw some fish and a turtle I calmed down and it was really fun!


On our last day we took a road trip to the north eastern side to a town called Hana (known for their banana bread). It was a CRAZY drive down two lane road that turned into one lane and wound around the coast. It was really pretty. There were trees with "painted bark". We found some tide pools along the way and Danny found some coconuts and a crab, thus making the whole drive worthwhile!

  2. p.s. I'm pretty sure we went to a Luau in Lahaina for my birthday when we were there - I remember the dessert they gave us looked like a surfer.
